Default I will probably pull the trigger tomorrow ....

I have been shopping for a 2012 actively for over a month now. (I will order, shopping for price).
The invoice I was shown by three dealers so far had a $124.92 for "FUEL CHARGE" and a $558.00 charge for "ADV ASSESSMENT". Seemed suspicious to me.

So today I called around a bit, and talked to a dealer in a small town about 45 minutes away. He was very nice, the owner himself. A totally different experience from the city dealers with 15 sales people waiting for customers like pray.
Anyway, he took down all the details, and called me back within 15 minutes. Right away he quoted me the correct MSRP, and the correct invoice without these BS charges. He then went on to offer the truck at $200 above that real invoice (no BS adv or fuel charge). So that's $520 below the X-plan price.
I'll drive there tomorrow, and if everything stays that way, I'll order the truck tomorrow:

- 2012 F-150 4WD SuperCrew 157" XLT
- HD payload package: 8,200lbs; 3.73 axle ratio
- 3.5L V6 ECOBOOST ENGINE
- XLT CONVENIENCE PKG
- XLT PLUS PKG
- Max Trailer Tow PKG
- XLT CONVENIENCE & TOW DISCOUNT
- REAR VIEW CAMERA (REQ: 61P XLT Plus Pkg)
- interior color: steel gray; bench seat
- exterior: sterling grey metallic
invoice = $38,733 (without adv or fuel charges)
MSRP = $42,985

Any other "must have's" I should add? Tonight could be my last chance to ask you guys before I place the order!
